The thread title is the friggin title of the documentary I was watching! Am wondering if the BBC producers are aware of how people respond to this title (never mind the content) ;)

Pmsl ... Love it! ;) now I'm curious about responses on this one ;)

My point exactly ;)

It's the title of the documentary! That's all ;)

Lol some comments do make me chuckle. It's the title of the documentary (there's also the men who made us thin now on BBC iplayer!) I've chosen for the thread. As my main intention was to recommend watching it. At the end of the day it's all about choice. I was just curious about other peoples discovery when it comes to…

Right ... after reading all of this ... there's some 90% dark chocolate waiting for me in the fridge. Very Tasty and undoubtably healthy: full of Antioxidants and rather good for my metabolism ;)

Whatever i find in the fridge or the Larder. Emergency Backup are the odd (healthy, no crap ingredient, lowish cal, protein rich) ready meals, Lentils (1min in the Microwave) with Tuna and whatever else salad wise. Best moment the other day was when I discovered there was still a portion of one-I've-made-earlier Beef curry…

Food intake yesterday 2392 ;)

Nope, that's not what i'm saying. I just find it amusing that it's ALWAYS water retention or the assumption one's Sodium intake must have been through the roof. When someone says they've had A LOT of food the day before then i consider the time it takes to digest the lot. And to a point, yes ... good bowel movement is…

The whole Sodium / Water thing makes me laugh. Basic biological process in the body like digestion and elimination of waste comes to mind. If there's a lot of food to digest, it'll take time to break down and get flushed out (sometimes 2-3 days) Doesn't mean one has gained fat or retained fluids. Depending on what kind of…

For Your Weight the BMR sounds right. The heavier you are the more energy your vital organs etc require to function. So as you lose the weight you need to check your BMR as it will drop with your weight. I'd say it is important to meet at least your absolute minimum energy requirement but don't go over too much unless…

Am with this. Treadmill is higher impact on the feet and well cushioned, supporting, quality running shoes are a must.though overall its difficult to comment what's causing it and how to remedy it without actually seeing you run. If you haven't had one done, get a gait scan and have the best personal trainer at your gym…

As a Sports and remedial Therapist with many years of experience, and having worked with Chiropractors for as long as I've been qualified, I'd say definately a case for the chiro or a good Osteopath to begin with. Bottom line is,the disfunction in your SI Joint will be most likely be aggravated by Muscular Imbalance but…

Ditch the brandy as a starting point, hydrate properly and eat!. Depression and anxiety can be aggravated by dehydration and malnutrition. Alcohol is counter productive (as is stress) to weight loss. I'm sure the rest will then follow!

Same here! I use the choc flavoured one in my home made breakfast bar! Lush, healthy, well balanced treat ;)

I do! Every day first thing in the morning and after the first movement and before breakfast. This way it's quite accurate, and my weight doesn't fluctuate a great deal. There's a crafty little iphone app called true weight, free if I remember correctly. You can put in your daily measurement and it takes in to account a…

Hiya. I'm 5'4 and the calculate ideal body weight for my age and height came up as 124lbs, which is bang in the middle of normal range. I've just hit my goal of 117lbs (started in feb at 142.6lbs!!!) The bottom weight of the normal range would be 114lbs. If you go below that you'd be considered underweight. A body fat…

Sure sounds like you're not eating enough! It's also well known that the first thing that comes off is water weight, hence weight dropping quickly in the beginning. It's also a well known fact that losing weight too quickly is not sustainable in the long run. You sure don't want to get it all back once you've worked hard…
